It depends on what modes you want to play:

• in Standard, your Legacy cards are useless, since you'll get access to the ones in the Core Set whether you have them in your collection or not
• in …

How do you define "viable"? In my opinion, Hearthstone these days has a lot of decks that are viable, in the sense that they allow you to climb the ladder if played well. This wasn't always the case, but recent …

I expect the Core set to be a bigger chunk of the meta than the current Basic + Classic sets. If that turns out to be the case, you'll need fewer expansion cards to build competitive decks.

Depends on which modes you're going to be playing. For Standard the packs will not be useful in the future, so you might as well open them now. For Wild and the new Classic format, former Classic cards like Ragnaros …

I really like the core set. It being free means it's easier for new and returning players to get enough cards to build a decent deck. And the fact that it rotates means they don't need to nerf every good …

Class achievements indeed aren't restricted by class. I'm making good progress on the "attack while having armor" Warrior achievement by using the Druid hero power.

I think the problem isn't that people were doing spreadsheets, but that they weren't given the full data to work with. The planned event XP wasn't disclosed at the start, so it didn't end up in those calculations, which made …

The problem with Jade Druid wasn't in the power level of the deck, but in what it did to the meta. Any slow deck would lose to Jade Druid, any fast deck would lose to Pirate Warrior, so that left …

[card]Shadowbomber[/card] is good versus spells or slower decks, but it does lose versus pogos and other fast minion-based decks.

Kibler has been asking for a rotating core set for years, so if they put him next to the game director, it's very likely going to be about the future of Classic.

I've played Xanesh in Constructed and drawing it late wasn't really an issue: the deck is still playable without the discounts. The games that I lost were because I didn't draw/discover enough AoE vs aggro; whether I had Xanesh in …

[card]Droplet of Insanity[/card] had its mind set on world domination today, giving me already-corrupted [card]10518[/card] twice, which was really good. I wonder if it's possible to just put the Clown in the deck from the start, maybe using [card]Dark Inquisitor …

I encountered one Paladin after another tonight, but it was all Librams (EU Gold).

Yeah, it's weird to hear him say that after they have just added a layer of indirection to the economy. Maybe that's why they had more packs on the rewards track at first, but that wasn't welcomed by players because …

Trying to get the most value out of your resources (cards, mana, life) is part of the game itself, so people who enjoy Hearthstone probably find figuring out how they can efficiently spend their gold and dust a challenge rather …

Quote From Aesan

Looking at the current Wild debate, it still sounds like they don't quite know what to make of the mode.

There seem to be two main opinions: one group wants Wild to …

I dropped Blessing of the Ancients to a single copy, because I also found it was often stuck in my hand until the lethal turn. Perhaps a second [card]Solar Eclipse[/card] can replace the remaining copy.

This is my current …

Quote From sinti

I wouldnt call it cheating, since the bad coding allows it, but i would soon look for if it hurts their viewership, i would not watch a streamer who constantly skips the combat, the tavern …

I think they realized they made a mistake with the initial release of Battlegrounds: they had a popular new game mode, but very little reason for people to spend money on it.

I don't mind that a player's collection …

I agree that balance is the main problem with Duels at the moment. The access requirements are also a problem, but even many people who can get in don't stick around.

Because the treasures (especially passives) are so crazy, …
